Many eating disorders professionals receive little to no education about OCD. What is OCD and how do treatment methods differ from traditional Eating Disorders? Obsessive compulsive disorder is a common co-occurring disorder with eating disorders. The differences are very important to identify as we may unintentionally cause through our use of language, goal setting and approach if the OCD is missed. The aim of this presentation is to provide an introduction to obsessive compulsive disorder as well as an introduction to the number one research proven treatment model, ERP. Before using the information learned with your ED clients, it is important to find advanced instruction on separating the eating disorder from what is the OCD so that you can properly treat your clients and empower them to recognize their own path to freedom.
Objectives:
1. Participants will recognize the presence of OCD in eating disorder clients.
2. Participants will analyze the collaborative components of the RD and MFT.
3. Participants will define Exposure Response Prevention as a form of treatment.
About the Presenter:
Jackie Shapin is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California. She provides therapy to adult individuals and specializes in treating OCD, anxiety and eating disorders. Jackie opened her practice at the end of 2017. Prior to doing so, she worked at The Bella Vita, an eating disorder treatment center, for eight years. Jackie had several roles during this time, including Clinical Supervisor and Program Manager. She has since expanded her practice to include clients with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. In 2017, she attended the International OCD Foundation’s Behavior Therapy Training Institute (BTTI) and trained in EMDR through the Institute for Creative Mindfulness. Jackie’s hands on work experience and specialized training has provided her with effective tools to help many throughout her career and she is continually adding to her abilities as a therapist.
Throughout Gloria Williamson’s 12 years of being a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN) she has intentionally gathered a diverse clientele ranging from infancy to 80+ years old and spanning the gender spectrum. Additionally, Gloria has picked up affiliations with International Federation of Eating Disorder Dietitians, the Association for Size Diversity and Health, and The World Professional Association for Transgender Health. She feels most purposeful in interdisciplinary collaboration to support the complex challenges that can arise alongside eating disorders. Gloria’s diverse range of clientele stems from her diverse and inclusive upbringing. Her grandparents were all born in Europe or Asia and she still has cultural ties to much of that heritage. Her queer identity has shaped her view of embodiment as she connects to the playful aspects of physical presentation and embodiment that reside in queer culture. Her family also inspired her loving relationship with food as her mom would often say that, “in Slovakia there were six instead of five love languages, the sixth one being food.”

Thank you for visiting to spend a quick moment to learn more.
We’re so glad you’re here.
We know it is quite likely that you are facing extreme and challenging situations in your life.
We understand the frustration, the questions and need for real help because we specialize in helping people just like you.
We know all this because there are typically three types of people who visit this event page.
If you fit into one of these three categories, this class was created entirely with you in mind.
Parents who have a child struggling with neurodevelopmental, behavioral, learning and socialization challenges. Your child may or may not already have a diagnosis of autism, ADHD, learning disabilities, sensory processing disorder, PANDAS/PANS, anxiety, depression, cerebral palsy or other developmental, genetic and behavioral challenges.
Educators and Child Care professionals looking for tips and strategies to best help and understand children in their classes and under their care. We love when you show up and you take the initiative to better serve your students!
Providers. Our talks are regularly attended by occupational therapists, nutritionists, ABA therapists, medical doctors, speech and language pathologists, physical therapists and many others looking to expand their knowledge in this area.
Based upon the extremely positive feedback from those who have attended these classes, we know this information is transformational for parents and families.
We also know it has been extremely valuable for the teachers and providers looking to learn new approaches and perspectives to help children with these challenges.
Regardless of where you fit in, we can’t wait to meet you and help guide you on this often difficult, confusing and frustrating journey.
What You’ll Learn:
- The role of diet on gut health and its influence on the brain and nervous system.
- We will explore how genetics and the environment impact childhood neurodevelopmental, learning and behavioral challenges.
- How behavior is impacted by a stressed brain and nervous system (Fight or Flight response).
- Natural strategies to improve health, behavior, learning and socialization that you can implement the next day.
Parents, providers and educators all rave about this class and we know you will too.
We're so confident of that because the only regret attendees have shared with us is that they wished they had access to this information sooner.
We can’t wait to meet you.
Sincerely,
Dr. Anthony Pellegrino
